Offline basemaps

VRC1 Posts: 1 5/18/2016	Hello; I saw that now terraflex can work with "Offline basemaps powered by Trimble data" what it means that we can use our own maps or use shp as basemaps?? Thanks

The post here - Caching Background Maps For Offline Use - guides you through it. Terraflex at the moment, doesn't support user defined/ imported base mapping. You see this added in the future but for now you can use the Trimble Map layer if you're working in an offline environment. - edited by Tom H on 5/19/2016 -- Tom H \| Trimble MGIS Ten things you didn't know you could do in Terraflex

More details of the migration plan will be released closer to the time. You can take a look at the Trimble TerraFlex Integration with Trimble Connect - Distributor Webinar - delivered last month (September, 2017) This goes through the new platform and the upcoming enhancements. You'll need to sign in using your Trimble learn account (or create one for free) to view this - edited by Tom H on 10/24/2017 -- Tom H \| Trimble MGIS Ten things you didn't know you could do in Terraflex
